Razor Boy
By Steely Dan (Becker/Fagen)
Transcribed by Joe Hankin
Off the album "Countdown to Ecstasy"
Capo 1
F#m D A G
I hear you are singing a song of the past; I see no tears
F#m D A G
I know that you know that it may be the last for many years
G A D A G
You'd gamble or give anything to be in with the better half
G A D A G
But how many friends must I have to begin with to make you laugh
Dm G Dm G F
A B
Will you still have a song to sing when
D F#m E F#m
The razor boy comes and takes your fancy things away?
F#m C#m D C#m E D E
Will you still be singing it on that cold and windy day?
F#m D A G F#m
You know that the coming is so close at hand, you feel all right
F#m D A G
I guess only women in cages can stand this kind of night
G A D A G
I guess only women in cages can play down the things they lose
G A D A G
You think no tomorrow will come when you lay down you can't refuse
Dm G Dm G F
[Chorus]
[Solo: 1st half of verse chords]
G A D A G
I guess only women in cages can play down the things they lose
G A D A G
You think no tomorrow will come when you lay down you can't refuse
Dm G Dm G F
[Chorus]
[Ending: F#m D A]
This should be pretty close to accurate. I welcome any questions, comments
or corrections: email me at wetzil@hotmail.com. I just play the chords in
the first position: the F#m is 244222 and the C#m is x46654. You have to
put a capo on the first fret to p lay with the record, but otherwise the
song is very straightforward.
